My agency uses Panasonic CF-33’s (equipped with Windows 10 1909) in the field, equipped with EM7455 chips from which we gather GPS sentences. We have a need to limit the output of these chips to solely the GPRMC sentence. Anyone have any idea how to do that?
You can enter AT command AT!GPSNMEASENTENCE=2 and reset module (AT!RESET) to limit the output of these chips to solely the GPRMC sentence.
!GPSNMEASENTENCE Set or report the current GPS NMEA sentence types

@Donald, I really appreciate your reply and I feel like we’re half way there. My next question, and this may be rudimentary so I apologize, is how to connect to the modem. I’ve used Putty to connect to the chips COM port but it consistently feeds the current GPS sentences through Putty and doesn’t allow me to execute commands. Can you walk me through connecting to the chip in Windows. I’d owe you beers!
EDIT: When I use something like (https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/terminal-basics/command-line-windows-mac-linux) when I attempt to ReadLine() it shows me the same stuff I get from Putty, its like the EM7455 is consistently talking and won’t listen to any commands.
Hi jchristensen,
Firstly, you need to install the latest driver windows for EM7455 https://source.sierrawireless.com/resources/airprime/software/usb-drivers-build-4836/#sthash.k20RCx1D.dpbs
Secondly, you use Sierra Wireless Snapdragon™ X7 LTE-A WWAN Modem port for AT command and Sierra Wireless Snapdragon™ X7 LTE-A NMEA Port for output NMEA GPS sentences.
I have attached the screenshot as below for your reference.
